Highly available particulate controlled release nitrogen fertilizer
a technology of nitrogen fertilizer and controlled release, which is applied in the direction of material granulation, granulation in rotating dishes/pans, biocide, etc., can solve the problems of increasing the osmotic pressure, or osmolality, of the fertilizer, and difficulty in granulation of urea containing solids, etc., to achieve high nitrogen conversion, low hot water insolubility, and high single season nitrogen efficiency

example 1
This example is provided to demonstrate a preferred method of preparing granular nitrogen fertilizers containing substantially controlled release nitrogen which exhibits high CRE (controlled release efficiencies) and single growth season availabilities.
To an enclosed stainless steel 304 reaction kettle equipped with a heating and cooling internal coil and jacket, a reflux condenser, mixing agitator, and a circulating pump was added in the order listed the following ingredients:
The liquid mixture containing formaldehyde to urea to ammonia in a mol ratio of 1 to 1.75 to 0.1 exhibited a pH of 8.6 and was heated to a temperature of 90.degree. C. at one atmosphere (760 mm Hg) pressure for a period of time amounting to 45 minutes with constant agitation, and with the reflux condenser returning all condensate derived from evaporation to the kettle. At the end of the 45 minutes reaction period analyses showed zero free formaldehyde, 0.03 percent free ammonia, and 3.02 percent urea nitrogen....
example 2
This example is provided to demonstrate the safety from phytotoxicity and the efficacy of the preferred granular fertilizer composition of the instant invention. Osmolality has been shown in the art to be an accurate indicator of phytotoxicity of nitrogen fertilizers with increasing osmolality (osmotic pressure of aqueous fertilizers) indicating increasing phytotoxicity. Osmolalities were measured at the 3 percent nitrogen level in water from the product of Example 1 and various other nitrogen fertilizers for comparison. These results are tabulated as follows:
To evaluate the availabilities to plants in soil of the nitrogens in several controlled release products, the products were applied to a plot growing Kentucky Bluegrass, at the rate of 3 pounds of nitrogen per 1000 square feet, and the soil was sampled through a single growing season in the laboratory at ambient temperature to determine the amount of unmineralized nitrogen remaining in the soil. The results are tabulated as fol...
example 3
This example is provided to demonstrate a perferred method of preparing particulate complete NPK fertilizers containing substantially controlled release nitrogen which exhibits high controlled release efficiencies.
Using the enclosed stainless steel reaction kettle of Example 1, the following ingredients were added in the order listed:
The liquid mixture exhibited a pH of 8.3 and was heated to a temperature of 91.degree. C. at 745 mm Hg pressure for a period of time amounting to 35 minutes. Analysis showed zero free formaldehyde, 0.01 percent free ammonia, and 3.61 percent urea nitrogen.
The dehydrating reactor of Example 1 was preheated to a temperature of 90.degree. C., and the liquid mixture was charged thereto, and 3.75 kilograms of 40 percent P.sub.2 O.sub.5 orthophosphoric acid dehydrating catalyst was added over a 30 second period to bring the pH of the mixture to 3.0 to initiate the dehydration-condensation reaction. The exothermic reaction increased the temperature in the reac...
